[Numpy-discussion] Consider linking to Accelerate in Apple Silicon ARM64 wheels

2023-03-22 Thread Clemens Brunner
Hello! I recently got a new MacBook Pro with an M2 Pro CPU (ARM64). When I ran some numerical computations (ICA to be precise), I was surprised how slow it was - way slower than e.g. my almost 10 year old Intel Mac. It turns out that the default OpenBLAS, which is what you get when installing t

Thanks Ralf, this sounds great! Just making sure I understand, this means that for macOS 13, we have to enable Accelerate by building NumPy from source. Once macOS 13.3 is out, building SciPy from source will also link to Accelerate. Finally, Accelerate support will be enabled by default in bina
